Lichess Enhancements Chrome extension

I really like how it highlights the new moves. I was wondering how we would approach this issue in the native implementation.
Thanks. Next on the to-do list would be the ability to go to a specific move by clicking on it. Unfortunately, due to the way the chess.js library was written (which this extension depends on), it is a little trickier than usual, but I do plan to have it in by the next version.

Also, there is a small issue when spectating fast games (especially those with a time control of 0+1) on Lichess TV or elsewhere. The extension will occasionally not be able to keep up with the moves and this will result in an incomplete PGN being shown. But I hope to have this fixed by the next version.
great work hasc! I look forward to see these features on lichess.org without having to install the extension. I cannot thank the programmers on lichess.org enough - for their selflessness and dedication.

An interesting aside: I thought lichess was deliberately not allowing us to see previous moves during the game , and reasoned that it may somehow be used by cheaters to download current pgn and use chess engine installed on their computers. Forgive my ignorance, I do not have a background that makes me an expert at such issues.

It's a technical issue, not so much a cheater issue.

There'll be some pretty significant updates to the software that's behind the chessboards soon, and being able to go over the move history will (hopefully) be one of the native features.

But, you know, only so many hands work on lichess; It takes time.
Thank you so much for adding these necessary features!!
